Canucks Head Coach Rick Tocchet mad…mad…mad…mad and more mad!! after Game 4 result and Vancouver’s poor effort by a number of players:

Media tried hard to be positive with Tocchet. He wasn't having it. Mad at the winning goal. Mad at the power play. Mad at the "five or six" passengers. Mad at Petey.

Pettersson faces media questions and faces tough questions in accountable position:

Elias Pettersson was the player Canucks presented to media for day-off press conference. Not sure who arranged it or if Rick Tocchet was involved, but that accountability is a positive sign. One small step.

Canucks Coach Rick Tocchet on Elias Pettersson:

Tocchet today. Also has a bit more to say on EP40. Says in fairness he may not be getting the help he needs, but also could be driving play more on his own. #Canucks pic.twitter.com/gg4qU68svt

Dakota Joshua a stud on ice for Canucks:

Dakota Joshua tonight – 1 goal, provides screen on another goal in 18min.

9 hits – he now has 29 hits in 4 games in this series.

He is 2nd in the NHL in hits.

He has 7 points in 10 games.

He is not 1 of the 5-6 passengers Tochett was talking about.
